1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

We describe a case of a 63-year-old lady with an incidental small right upper lobe ground glass opacity (GGO) lesion, who had history of open-heart surgery with bypass grafts for coronary artery disease. Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) excisional biopsy with pre-operative localization was planned. Localization by percutaneous approach is challenging due to position of GGO shielded by both the scapular and ribs. Electromagnetic navigation accuracy may be affected by steel sternal wires but its effect has not been reported on literature. Both virtual and electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy platforms were used with real-time cone-beam CT confirmation in the hybrid operating room to perform dye marking. Both navigation methods successfully marked the GGO for lung resection. Our case demonstrated that the accuracy of electromagnetic navigation in the presence of steel sternal wire is satisfactory for dye marking and the use of intra-operative cone-beam CT in hybrid operating room is invaluable for the success of navigational bronchoscopy.
